Ever find yourself staring at a blank page, struggling to find the right words? It happens to all of us in the beginning.

But there’s a way to maintain that writing flow.

Do you know what we writers do to Build the foundation?

1. We build a reading habit.

No, you don’t have to read long novels every day. — just reading one or two articles daily can do wonders.

Reading gives us ideas — For beginners, it will help with sentence formation, tenses, spelling, and more.

2. We write every day.

Writing has become part of our routine.

If you’re just starting, try these tips:

  • Be more observant.

Notice the details around you. They can give you some best ideas.

  • Journal to clear your thoughts.

This will help you gain clarity and focus.

  • Brain-dump whatever comes to mind.

Don’t worry about perfection, just get the words out.

These foundational practices will help you establish a strong writing habit.

Now it’s time to refine your craft with these techniques-

3. How you can write more CREATIVE stuff-

Go to Google, gather industry insights, see what’s trending, and start writing about those topics.

Check your favorite influencers’ top 5 posts and write your own take on those topics.

Now that the major work is done, what’s left is a proper finishing touch. We embrace the editing process. Writing is just the first step.

4. The magic often happens in the EDITING.

Refine your work by cutting excess, clarifying your message, and working on improving the flow. You can use apps like Grammarly for that.

5. We seek FEEDBACK.

Share your work with others, whether it’s a friend, a mentor, or a community of writers. Check if that can help you. Don’t you think so?

6. We EXPERIMENT with different styles.

Try new things. Play with different writing styles, tones, and formats.

This helps you find your voice and keep your content fresh.

These tips worked for me, and they can work for you too. It all depends on how good you are at following these steps.
